Product details
Overview
STW26NM60N from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 135 mΩ (typ), 20 A Power MOSFET using MDmesh™ II technology in TO-247 package. It delivers ultra-low gate charge (60 nC) and input capacitance (1800 pF), enabling high-efficiency hard-switched and resonant converters in industrial SMPS and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the STW26NM60N datasheet, STW26NM60N pinout, STW26NM60N application, or STW26NM60N equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (610 mJ EAS), dv/dt immunity (15 V/ns), and thermal resistance (0.89 °C/W RthJC) for high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's second-generation MDmesh vertical strip layout to minimize RDS(on) and Qg simultaneously-achieving 135 mΩ typ at VGS = 10 V and 60 nC total gate charge. Its optimized Crss (6 pF) and Coss eq. (310 pF) support fast, low-loss switching in 100–500 kHz converters.
The integrated body diode features 370 ns trr and 5.8 µC Qrr at 25 °C, with controlled recovery behavior validated under 100 A/µs di/dt and 60 V VDD. Junction temperature range spans –55 to 150 °C, supporting operation in thermally constrained industrial environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50% voltage margin for transient spikes |
| RDS(on) max | 165 mΩ - ensures ≤3.3 W conduction loss at 20 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 60 nC - enables efficient gate drive with <1 W driver power at 200 kHz switching |
| EAS | 610 mJ - provides robust unclamped inductive switching capability without external snubbers |
| RthJC | 0.89 °C/W - allows 140 W dissipation with ≤125 °C case-to-junction rise at 25 °C heatsink |
| Ciss | 1800 pF - reduces Miller-induced turn-on risk in high-side configurations |
| dv/dt rating | 15 V/ns - suppresses false triggering during fast voltage transients in bridge legs |
Pinout & Package
TO-247 package: isolated tab (Drain), 3-pin through-hole mounting with 5.3 mm creepage, RoHS-compliant ECOPACK®2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | High-impedance control terminal requiring <60 nC charge for full enhancement; 2.8 Ω intrinsic gate resistance limits ringing |
| 2 (D, Tab) | Drain | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for direct heatsink mounting and low-inductance thermal path |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return and reference node for gate drive; ties to PCB ground plane to minimize common-source inductance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees single-pulse ruggedness up to 610 mJ without derating, eliminating need for overvoltage clamping in flyback/PFC |
| Low Ciss/Coss ratio | 1800 pF / 115 pF = 15.7 - improves voltage-dependent switching efficiency and reduces capacitive losses above 200 V |
| Optimized Crss | 6 pF - minimizes Miller feedback during dV/dt transitions, enabling stable operation with minimal gate resistor |
| MDmesh™ II structure | Vertical trench + strip layout - achieves 25% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. first-gen MDmesh devices |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP60R190C7 | RDS(on) = 190 mΩ, Qg = 43 nC, 650 V rating, CoolMOS™ C7 | Higher conduction loss but lower gate charge; better suited for >300 kHz ZVS topologies | Select when gate drive power budget is tighter than conduction loss budget |
| IXFH50N60P | RDS(on) = 125 mΩ, Qg = 120 nC, 600 V rating, HiPerFET™ | Lower RDS(on) but double Qg; higher switching loss above 100 kHz | Prefer for 50–100 kHz hard-switched applications where thermal headroom exists |
Compared with IPP60R190C7 and IXFH50N60P, STW26NM60N offers the best balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and proven avalanche ruggedness-making it optimal for 100–250 kHz industrial SMPS where reliability under overload is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STW26NM60N supports 12.6 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS9926 Rev 3. This derating reflects junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.89 °C/W) and maximum allowable TJ of 150 °C, ensuring safe operation in convection-cooled enclosures.
Does this MOSFET include an integrated anti-parallel diode suitable for synchronous rectification?
No-the STW26NM60N contains a standard body diode optimized for unclamped inductive switching (EAS = 610 mJ), not synchronous rectification. Its reverse recovery time (370 ns) and Qrr (5.8 µC) exceed requirements for synchronous FETs; use dedicated SR controllers with logic-level MOSFETs for that function.
Can STW26NM60N be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive temperature coefficient for RDS(on) (see Figure 10) enables current sharing across paralleled devices. Designers must match gate drive loop inductance and use individual 5–10 Ω gate resistors to prevent oscillation; layout symmetry is critical to avoid thermal runaway.
Is the TO-247 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes-STW26NM60N is supplied in ECOPACK®2-compliant TO-247 packaging, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1). The device is halogen-free and qualified for reflow soldering per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D.3.
